I bought this as an Anthurium NOID but it was also referred to as an Anthurium Nigrolaminum. Do Anthurium have aerial roots? What do you guys think?

That's definitely not a A.Nigrolaminum. yes anthurium can develop roots on top, but it honestly looks like a philo. Like an imperial green or melanoni

I thought it looked like a P. Sharonae

P. Sharoniae have pretty distinct tops, and those aren't it, in my opinion, it also doesn't have the ruffling down the leaf, the veining is too far apart and not concentric enough
